Is this the one you want? Far frae my hame I wander But still my thoughts return To my ain folk ower yonder In the sheiling by the burn I see the cosy ingle And the mist abune the brae And joy and sadness mingle As I list some auld-warld lay. And it's Oh but I'm longing for my ain folk Tho they be lowly, puir and plain folk I am far beyond the sea But my heart will ever be At hame in dear auld Scotland wi' my ain folk. (100 Great Scottish Songs, Waltons, Dublin)
